GPU Clock MHz

The main attributes of the GPU are the core clock rate, which typically ranges from 250 MHz to 1200 MHz in modern cards.

840 MHz

Memory Interface Bus (bit)

The bit data rate between memory and the GPU.

Memory Type

VRAM was typically based on DDR technology. During and after that year, manufacturers moved towards the vastly superior DDR2, GDDR3 and GDDR4.

DDR5

Memory Size (MB)

the video card will have its own video memory which is called Video RAM or VRAM. The VRAM capacity of most modern video cards range from 128 MB to 2.0 GB.

1024 MB

Memory Clock (MHz)

The memory clock rate in modern cards are generally between 400 MHz and 2.4 GHz.

Sometimes known as an active cooling device, a small electrical fan which drives air across a heat sink and as such will generate a small amount of noise. It is more effective than a heat sink alone at cooling.

ROHS

The RoHS Directive stands for "the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment". This Directive bans the placing on the EU market of new electrical and electronic equipment containing more than agreed levels of lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) flame retardants.
